I don't need no stinking $600 Gi.

Me neither, which is why I'm glad the Shoyoroll retails for around $140 last time I checked. If some idiot wants to pay more than 4 times that price, he is welcome to do so. I am way too cheap to pay that kind of money for a gi.

How do you like the Sprawl Gi Pants? I was thinking of picking up a pair since I dig the other Sprawl equipment I own.

I love them. I actually ordered a second pair to use for No-gi as well. Definitely the most comfortable gi gants I own. The only issue with them is they come really long. Even though they do shrink in the wash it wasn't enough for me. So I ended up getting them hemed.

I'm a bit late to this party, but Gameness makes a red gi that isn't too terribly obnoxious. I was a Gameness "reseller" for a bit, and I ordered one of the red out curiosity. I have to say that it is actually not a bad gi.

No gi is worth $600. Buy a $100 gi and donate the rest to charity.

To be clear, the Shoyoroll does retail for $150 ish, if you pre-order. They release 1 or 2 batches a year, and it takes months to receive, but supposedly worth the wait.

The reason the one I saw was so expensive was that people have too much money and too little sense, so they bid on these like dipshits. Point being you can't just click and shop for a Shoyoroll unless you want to shell out big bucks.

So take the $600 and pre-order 4 at $150.
Keep one for yourself.
Sell off the others for a $1200 profit.
?????

Yep - a lot of people do that. I think you can only order 2 or maybe 3.

$610 is noteworthy because it's well above normal. From what I've seen $300-350 is a very common e-bay price, so doubling one's investment is easy.
